Couple of years back, I was in the park early morning. Probably reading something or just looking around at random things like tiiiiiiiiny bugs, not so tiny bugs, the birds that hop around.. My imagination goes wild when I'm there. But this is real...
So sitting on the grass I could see the sun coming up from behind the trees; you start seeing the gaps between the leaves light up and then the disk comes out. It's early enough that you can actually stare at the sun without hurting your eyes. While all this was very beautiful, that day when I was staring, something else caught my attention - something glowing or a light beam from somewhere. It took me a while to focus on it, and then I realized that it was this one strand of a spider web. It had caught the light and was glowing. I followed it from the tip of a branch to a stone on the ground. And then all of a sudden I saw that the grass was filled with these glowing threads! Criss-crossing all over the place.
It's a very gentle glow, and I guess you'd need to look for it to find and see it, but once you do - it's everywhere! It was amazing how I'd never noticed it before.
Starting near my foot I looked further away and saw that tiny spiders or other weby creatures had been very busy at night and had webbed up the entire area.. But you could only see the lines where the sunlight touched them.
After a while, as the sun rose higher, the light in the threads dimmed until they became invisible again. Only, now I know they're there.
